"Wan’er, you know how Great Grandpa’s temperant is. He only rembers Xiao Xuan and Grandpa. Saying these things in front of Xiao Xuan, Xiao Xuan will surely look displeased. How could Great Grandpa not scold you?" Ye Qinglian softly comforted, "Rember from now on, never upset Xiao Xuan in front of Great Grandpa."
"I understand." Qiao Xiaowan squeezed out a smile and stood up, "Grandpa, Grandma, Second Uncle, Second Aunt..., I’ll head ho first and co visit you and Grandma another day."
Ye Qinglian quickly tried to keep her: "Wan’er, it’s almost noon, stay for a al before you go."
Qiao Xiaowan was slightly tempted; her desire to leave stemd from feeling embarrassed in front of Luo Ye, unable to save face. Yet, it was rare for Ye Xuan to co back, and the thought of leaving this way also made her sowhat reluctant.
Just as she was about to graciously take the out, Old Master Ye spoke up, "Wan’er, Grandpa knows you felt wronged today, but, let’s face it, not just you, if I say sothing Old Grandpa doesn’t like, he would scold all the sa.
Today, we won’t keep you for a al, in case Old Grandpa’s hasn’t cald down yet, and you end up feeling aggrieved again. Co next ti, once Old Grandpa has forgotten, it will be fine."
Old Master Ye instructed Ye Qinglian to see Qiao Xiaowan off. Qiao Xiaowan was eager to have a private chat with Ye Qinglian and thanked her with a smile as she left.
As the two of them exited the door, they t Ye Qinghe and Ye Jian who had just returned. Qinghe, not fond of Qiao Xiaowan’s frequent coquettish behavior every ti she visited the Ye Family, glanced at her indifferently and entered the house without acknowledgent.
Ye Jian and Ye Qinglian, being close siblings, quickly stopped walking, "Sis, where are you and Sister Wan’er going?"
"Wan’er is heading ho. Grandpa asked to see her off." Ye Qinglian’s eyeballs spun, and she looked at her brother smiling, "How about you take Sister Wan’er instead?"
"Sure." Ye Jian happily agreed.
"Ye Jian, I have a few words I’d like to speak alone with Sister Qinglian," Qiao Xiaowan held onto Ye Qinglian, looking at her expectantly. "Sister Qinglian..."
"Alright then." Ye Qinglian apologetically glanced at her dazed brother and left with Qiao Xiaowan.
After Ye Qinghe and Ye Jian greeted Yu Ying and Zhan Ping, Old Sir Ye, with deep eyes, turned to Su Sha, "I know you have ideas, but this matter is already settled, what do you an by bringing her here?"
Su Sha hurriedly responded, "Dad, today was the first rehearsal in the troupe, and the car was scarce, so I had her drive . When we got to the door, it didn’t seem right not to invite her in to sit."
"I hope so." The Old Master leaned back, eyes fixed on Su Sha, "You know exactly what temper Xiao Xuan has, I don’t need to remind you, right?"
"I know." Su Sha bowed her head, her eye color indiscernible.
The Old Lady glanced at the third daughter-in-law, then stood up, "I’ll go see Old Grandpa. Really, Third hasn’t co back yet."
The Old Master also stood up, "I’ll co with you. It looks like Old Grandpa really likes Ye’er." He walked up to Zhan Ping, took his hand, "Pingping, co with Grandpa to see Great Grandpa."
Seventh Uncle Ye hurriedly said, "Dad, Yu Ying and I will co too."
The Old Master pondered, "Okay, it’s almost alti anyway." Speaking, he waved his hands to the two families of Second and Fifth who had stood up, "You guys don’t need to crowd around; you know how Old Grandpa’s temper is, the more people there are, the more annoyed he gets."
"Grandpa, I’m also your grandson." Ye Jian muttered discontentedly.
"Ye Jian!" Second Uncle Ye quickly cautioned.
The Old Master, displeased, glanced at Ye Jian, and followed the Old Lady out of the main hall.
"Dad is excessively biased. Xiao Jian is his grandson too," Second Aunt Ye Si Yue muttered discontentedly, "Xiao Jian might not be as successful as Xiao Xuan, but isn’t he three years younger?"
Su Sha’s eyes flickered silently.
Second Uncle Ye looked dissatisfaction at his wife, "A doting mother has a spoiled son. What position did Xiao Xuan have when he was his age? And him? You even have the face to say it!"
"Alright, then don’t compare him to Xiao Xuan, compare him to Xiao Ping. Xiao Ping just ca back, look how affectionate Dad was to him, as if Xiao Jian isn’t Ye Family’s own flesh," Si Yue said indignantly.
"If Great Grandpa were here, he’d knock you dead!" Second Uncle Ye glared at his wife.
"Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, stop arguing," Uncle Ye turned to Si Yue, "Second Sister-in-law, Dad has always been fair. We all know how heavy the burden on Xiao Xuan’s shoulders is and how much hardship he endured since childhood.
As for Xiao Ping, he was lost outside for nearly nineteen years and has just returned ho now. If Old Master ignored him, how would that seem? We can’t let Old Master and Old Lady only show their teeth every ti they see their grandchildren, right?"
"Whatever it is, I just feel uncomfortable," Si Yue looked at the servant busily pouring water, "Mrs. Yang, we’ll handle it ourselves."
"Yes." Mrs. Yang acknowledged and quickly left the main hall.
"You, what else do you want to nag about?" Second Uncle Ye looked displeased, "If you’re fed up with staying in this house, just say it."
"Ye Jiaquan, do you have a conscience?" Si Yue glared at him, "Am I not doing this for the good of this house? Look, wasn’t Dad’s intention just now obvious?
If Xiaowan goes ho and tells her family about today’s events in detail, what kind of person is Old Master Qiao? He would imdiately understand what our Old Master ant. You know, the Ye Family doesn’t just have one grandson. Old Master only has Xiao Xuan in his heart.
The Ye Family can only grow strong if everyone progresses well. Can we rely solely on Xiao Xuan? You might not like my words, but I’m speaking the truth!"
Ye Qinghe looked at Si Yue with a detached expression, slowly said, "Second Aunt, just say it straightforwardly, you want Qiao Xiaowan to marry Ye Jian. But is this just a matter of your saying?"
